Synopsis
Excerpt from In the Land of Frozen Fires: A History of Occupation in El Malpais Country
The bill provides for acres as a national conservation area managed by the Bureau of Land Management and acres as a national monument administered by the National Park Service. Legislation designates the Masau Trail, a vehicular tour route, linking El Malpais National Monument with other major sites of antiquity in New Mexico and Arizona.
El Malpais National Monument's boundaries include lands south of Interstate 40 near Grants, the Sandstone Bluffs area on the east side of the malpais adjacent to Highway 117, and Highways 53 and 109 flank the western boundary. The National Conservation Area extends out and circumvents national monument lands on all sides except north. Much of the National Conservation Area has been designated Wilderness Area.
As a new unit of the National Park Service, El Malpais National Monument is deficient in basic data necessary for planning requirements. This report will delineate the salient history of the region and identify historical themes and events associated with the monument and conservation area. The ultimate goal is to provide managers, interpreters, and resource personnel with background material on the region's cultural history, to reflect human existence, interaction, and awareness and appreciation of this historically rich and beautiful land.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of El Malpais, a rugged volcanic landscape in New Mexico, exploring the complex interplay between its unique geography and the cultures that have inhabited it for centuries. The author traces the region's history from the era of Spanish conquest, vividly recounting the struggles of early explorers, missionaries, and settlers against the challenges of the terrain and the indigenous peoples who had long called the land home. The book delves into the story of the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 and the subsequent Spanish reconquest, highlighting the enduring impact of these tumultuous events on the region's social and cultural fabric. You'll discover the significance of the El Malpais as a vital travel route connecting different pueblos, its importance as a refuge for both native groups and Spanish travelers, and its role as a site of conflict and cooperation between different cultures. The book illuminates the complex legacy of colonialism in New Mexico, showing how this seemingly inhospitable environment shaped the lives, interactions, and cultural identities of its inhabitants.
